When I enrolled at college for a secretarial course I can remember one of the men at the desk saying to me "don't waste your time, no-one will be using shorthand and typing in the years to come." Little did he know,41 years later my daughter will be learning shorthand for her journalism career, and who would have thought literally everyone needs to know how to type? All the new technology comes in with a bang but soon settles into being a part of our daily lives. I remember someone once saying catalogues spelled the demise of shops; now they say it about internet shopping. Do you remember video machines - "oh, can't be doing with that, I'll be watching TV all day".
